Hereinafter, embodiments of the inventive concepts will now be described more fully with reference to accompanying drawings.

FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view illustrating a semiconductor package according to first to fourth embodiments of the inventive concepts. FIG. 2 is an enlarged cross-sectional view of a portion A in FIG. 1, illustrating a semiconductor package according to the first embodiment of the inventive concepts.

Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, the semiconductor package 1000 may include a package substrate 10, semiconductor chips 20 stacked on the package substrate 10, and a molding layer 40 to cover the semiconductor chips 20 on the package substrate 10.

A first substrate pad 11 may be disposed on a top surface of the package substrate 10, and a second substrate pad 13 may be disposed on a bottom surface of the package substrate 10. An external terminal 15 may be attached onto the second substrate pad 13. The external terminal 15 may be connected to an external device to electrically connect the semiconductor package 1000 and the external device to each other. The package substrate 10 may comprise a printed circuit board (PCB) having a multi-layered structure. The package substrate 10 may include a plurality of insulating layers (not shown) and interconnections 17 (see FIG. 2) disposed between the insulating layers. The first substrate pad 11, the second substrate pad 13, the external terminal 15, and the interconnections 17 may be formed of a conductive material.

A plurality of semiconductor chips 20 may be stacked on the package substrate 10. Through vias 21 may be formed at the semiconductor chips 20 to penetrate the semiconductor chips 20, respectively. In some embodiments, the through via 21 may not be formed at an uppermost semiconductor chip 20 b stacked on an uppermost portion of the semiconductor chip 20. A chip pad 23 may be disposed on a surface of the semiconductor chips 20 to be in contact with the through via 21. A chip bump 25 may be disposed between chip pads 23 vertically facing each other.

The semiconductor chips 20 may include a first semiconductor chip 20 a disposed at a lowermost portion of the semiconductor chips 20 to be adjacent to the package substrate 10. The chip pad 23 may include a first chip pad 23 a disposed on a lower surface of the first semiconductor chip 20 a. The chip bump 25 may include a first chip bump 25 a attached onto the first chip pad 23 a. The chip pad 23 and the chip bump 25 may include a metal material. More specifically, the chip bump 25 may include a metal material with lower ionization tendency than the chip pad 23. For example, the chip pad 23 may comprise aluminum (Al) and the chip bump 25 may be tin (Sn). The higher the ionization tendency of a metal material is the higher the corrosion rate of the metal material.

An adhesive layer 30 may be provided on the package substrate 10. Specifically, the adhesive layer 30 may be locally disposed between the package substrate 10 and the first semiconductor chip 20 a and between the semiconductor chips 20. The adhesive layer 30 may cover sidewalls of the semiconductor chips 20. The adhesive layer 30 may comprise, for example, a non-conductive film (NCF). A top surface of an uppermost semiconductor chip 20 b of the semiconductor chips 20 may be exposed by the adhesive layer 30. A molding layer 40 may be disposed on the package substrate 10. The molding layer 40 may be formed to fully cover the top surface of the package substrate 10 and the semiconductor chips 20.

Referring to FIG. 2, a first chip bump 25 a substantially attached onto the first chip pad 23 a may include a connection pillar 27 having predetermined height and a solder 28. After the connection pillar 27 is plated on the first chip pad 23 a by means of a photolithography process and a plating process, the solder 28 may be plated on the connection pillar 27. The connection pillar 27 may have smaller ionization tendency than the solder 28. The connection pillar 27 may be, for example, copper (Cu). The solder 28 may comprise, for example, tin (Sn).

A passivation layer 31 may be disposed on a bottom surface of the first semiconductor chip 20 a. The passivation layer 31 may cover a portion of the bottom surface of the first semiconductor chip 20 a which is exposed by the first chip pad 23 a. The passivation layer 31 may include an insulating material.

The first chip pad 23 a may include a connection pad 24 and a measurement pad 26. The first chip bump 25 a may be attached onto the connection pad 24 and the measurement pad 26. Specifically, the first chip bump 25 a may include a connection bump 34 attached onto the connection pad 24 and a measurement bump 36 attached onto the measurement pad 26. The connection pad 24 may be electrically connected to the package substrate 10 via the connection bump 34 to provide a voltage to the semiconductor chip 20 and transmit a signal to the external device via the semiconductor chip 20. The measurement pad 26 is a pad to inspect electrical characteristics of a semiconductor chip. A probe needle for a probe card may come in contact with the measurement pad 26 to inspect the electrical characteristics of the semiconductor chip. When the semiconductor chip 20 is applied with a bias, the measurement pad 26 may be applied with a voltage. For example, the measurement pad 26 may be applied with either one of a positive voltage and a negative voltage. In addition, the measurement pad 26 may be applied with either one of a low voltage (e.g., 0 volts or above to 3.0 volts or less) and a high voltage (e.g., 3.0 volts or above to 10.0 volts or less).

The first chip bump 25 a attached onto the first chip pad 23 a may be in physical contact with the first substrate pad 11 disposed on the package substrate 10. The connection bump 34 disposed on the connection pad 24 to be in contact with the first substrate pad 11 may be electrically connected to the external terminal 15 by an interconnection 17 disposed within the package substrate 10. The measurement bump 36 disposed on the measurement pad 26 to be in contact with the first substrate pad 11 may not be electrically connected to the external terminal 15. In other words, the interconnection 17 is not electrically connected to the first substrate pad 11 that is in contact with the measurement bump 36, allowing the measurement pad 26 to be electrically insulated from the interconnection 17.

Since a measurement pad used to inspect electrical characteristics of a semiconductor chip must be insulated from an external system, a bump may not be disposed on the measurement pad. A semiconductor package may include various impurity ions (e.g., Na⁺, Cl⁻, S⁻, F⁻, etc.). When a bias is applied to the semiconductor chip to perform electrical inspection, impurity ions may have an influence on a measurement pad applied with a voltage to corrode the measurement pad. As the measurement pad is corroded, the corrosion may transition to interconnections within the semiconductor chip to damage the measurement pad (e.g., Burnt-out). Thus, the interconnections within the semiconductor chip may also be damaged to reduce reliability of a semiconductor package.

According to embodiments of the inventive concepts, a bump may be formed on the measurement pad 26. The bump covers an exposed surface of the measurement pad 26 to prevent the corrosion of the surface of the measurement pad 26 which is vulnerable to corrosion. In addition, some surface of the measurement pad 26 exposed by the connection pillar 27 may be formed metal oxide (e.g., Al₂O₃) by combining with oxygen ions. It may be easier for impurity ions to corrode the solder 28 than to corrode the measurement pad 26 covered with metal oxide. Accordingly, as the solder 28 corrodes instead of the measurement pad 26, the measurement pad 26 may be prevented from corroding. Thus, the reliability of the semiconductor 1000 may be improved.

FIG. 3 is an enlarged cross-sectional view of a portion A in FIG. 1, illustrating a semiconductor package according to the second embodiment of the inventive concepts. For brevity of description, in FIG. 3, the components substantially identical with those of FIGS. 1 and 2 are designated by the same reference numerals and their explanations will be omitted.

Referring to FIG. 3, a first chip bump 25 a may be attached onto a connection pad 24 and a measurement pad 26. The first chip bump 25 a may include a connection bump 34 and a measurement bump 36. The connection bump 34 may be attached onto the connection pad 24, and the measurement bump 36 may be attached onto the measurement pad 26. The connection bump 34 may be in contact with a first substrate pad 11 disposed on a package substrate 10, while the measurement bump 36 may not be in contact with the first substrate pad 11. Specifically, the measurement bump 36 may be in contact with a top surface of the package substrate 10. However, the first substrate pad 11 may not be disposed on a top surface of the package substrate 10 that is in contact with the measurement bump 36.

An interconnection 17 disposed within the package substrate 10 may be connected to the first substrate pad 11 to electrically connect the first substrate pad 11 and the external terminal 15 to each other. Thus, the connection bump 34 in contact with the first substrate 11 may be electrically connected to the external terminal 15 by the interconnection 17. The first substrate pad 11 connected to the measurement pad 26 may be electrically connected to the external terminal 15 by the measurement bump 36.

FIG. 4 is an enlarged cross-sectional view of a portion A in FIG. 1, illustrating a semiconductor package according to the third embodiment of the inventive concepts. For brevity of description, in FIG. 4, the components substantially identical with those of FIGS. 1 and 2 are designated by the same reference numerals and their explanations will be omitted.

Referring to FIG. 4, a first chip bump 25 a may be attached onto the connection pad 24 and the measurement pad 26. The first chip bump 25 a may include a connection bump 34 and a measurement bump 36. The connection bump 34 may be attached onto the connection pad 24, and the measurement bump 36 may be attached onto the measurement pad 26. The connection bump 34 may be in contact with a first substrate pad 11 disposed on a package substrate 10, while the measurement bump 36 may not be in contact with the first substrate pad 11. Specifically, the first substrate pad 11 may be disposed on a top surface of the package substrate 10 to correspond to the measurement bump 36. However, the measurement bump 36 may be attached onto the measurement pad 26 to be spaced apart from the first substrate pad 11. That is, height H2 of the measurement bump 36 may be smaller than height H1 of the connection bump 34. Accordingly, the measurement bump 36 disposed on the measurement pad 26 may be electrically insulated from an interconnection 17. The interconnection 17 disposed within the package substrate 10 may be connected to the first substrate pad 11 to electrically connect the first substrate pad 11 and an external terminal 15 to each other. Thus, the connection bump 34 may be electrically connected to the external terminal 15 by the interconnection 17.

FIG. 5 is an enlarged cross-sectional view of a portion A in FIG. 1, illustrating a semiconductor package according to the fourth embodiment of the inventive concepts. For brevity of description, in FIG. 5, the components substantially identical with those of FIGS. 1 and 2 are designated by the same reference numerals and their explanations will be omitted.

Referring to FIG. 5, a connection bump 34 attached onto a connection pad 24 may be electrically connected to a first substrate pad 11. A measurement pad 26 may include a first measurement pad 26 a and a second measurement pad 26 b. A measurement pad 36 may be attached onto the first measurement pad 26 a and may not be attached onto the second measurement pad 26 b. In an example embodiment, the first measurement pad 26 a may be applied with a positive voltage. When a first semiconductor chip 20 a is applied with a bias, a connection pad 24 and the measurement pad 26 may be applied with either one of a negative voltage and a positive voltage. The first measurement pad 26 a applied with the positive voltage may exhibit greater degree of corrosion than the second measurement pad 26 b applied with the negative voltage. This is because ions to cause corrosion of the measurement pad 26 are Cl⁻ and F⁻ and cling to the first measurement pad 26 a applied with the positive voltage.

In another example embodiment, the first measurement pad 26 a may be applied with a high voltage. A corrosion rate of the first measurement pad 26 a applied with a high voltage (e.g., 3.0 volts or above to 10.0 volts or less) may be higher than that of the second measurement pad 26 b applied with a relatively lower voltage (e.g., 0 volt or above to 3.0 volts or less). Thus, a measurement bump 36 may be attached onto the first measurement pad 26 a applied with the positive voltage and/or the first measurement voltage 26 a applied with the high voltage high, but may not be attached onto the second measurement pad 26 b applied with the negative voltage and/or the second measurement pad 26 b applied with the low voltage.

An interconnection 17 may be disposed at a first substrate pad 11 connected to the connection pad 24 by a connection bump 34. Thus, the connection bump 34 disposed on the connection pad 24 may be electrically connected to the interconnection 17. The interconnection 17 may not be disposed on a first substrate pad 11 that is in contact with a measurement bump 36 disposed on the first measurement pad 26 a. Thus, the measurement bump 36 may be electrically insulated from the interconnection 17.

The first substrate pad 11 may not be disposed at a position corresponding to the second measurement pad 26 b.

When a semiconductor chip is applied with a bias, one of the measurement pads 26 may be applied with a positive voltage and another pad 26 may be applied with a negative voltage. The measurement pad 26 applied with the positive voltage may exhibit greater degree of corrosion than the measurement pad 26 applied with the negative voltage. This is because ions included in a semiconductor package bond to a surface of the measurement pad 26 applied with the positive voltage to have an influence of corrosion thereon. In addition, the measurement pad 26 applied with the high voltage may exhibit a greater degree of corrosion than the measurement pad 26 applied with the low voltage.

According to embodiments of the inventive concepts, a bump may be selectively formed on the first measurement pad 26 a applied with a positive voltage and/or the first measurement pad 26 a applied with a high voltage. Due to the reason described in the first embodiment, the first measurement pad 26 a is protected by the bump to prevent the first measurement pad 26 a from corroding. Moreover, an area of the first measurement pad 26 a applied with the positive voltage is made larger than that of the second measurement pad 26 b applied with the negative voltage to prevent the first measurement pad 26 a from corroding. A bump may be selectively formed on the first measurement pad 26 a applied with the positive voltage to increase an area of the measurement pad 26 a applied with the positive voltage. Thus, reliability of a semiconductor package 1000 may be improved.

FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view illustrating a semiconductor package according to a fifth embodiment of the inventive concepts.

Referring to FIG. 6, the semiconductor package 2000 may include a package substrate 100, a semiconductor chip 120 stacked on the package substrate 100, and a molding layer 140 to cover the semiconductor chip 120 on the package substrate 100.

A first substrate pad 111 may be disposed on a top surface of the package substrate 100, and a second substrate pad 113 may be disposed on a bottom surface of the package substrate 100. An external terminal 115 may be attached onto the second substrate pad 113. The external terminal 115 may be connected to an external device to electrically connect the semiconductor package 2000 and the external device to each other. The package substrate 100 may be a printed circuit board (PCB) having a multi-layered structure. The package substrate 100 may include a plurality of insulating layers (not shown) and interconnection disposed between the insulating layers.

The semiconductor chip 120 may be mounted on the package substrate 100 in a flip-chip bonding manner. A chip pad 123 may be disposed on a bottom surface of the semiconductor chip 120, and a chip bump 125 may be attached onto the chip pad 123. The chip bump 125 formed on the bottom surface of the semiconductor chip 120 may be in contact with the first substrate pad 111 using flip-chip bonding.

The chip pad 123 may include a connection pad 124 and a measurement pad 126. The chip bump 125 may include a connection bump 134 and a measurement bump 136. The connection bump 134 may be attached onto the connection pad 124 and be in contact with the first substrate pad 111. A measurement bump 136 may be attached onto the measurement pad 126 and be in contact with the first substrate pad 111. An interconnection 117 may be disposed at the first substrate pad 111 connected to the connection pad 124 by the connection bump 134. Thus, the connection bump 134 disposed on the connection pad 124 may be electrically connected to the external terminal 115 via the interconnection 117 disposed within the package substrate 100. The interconnection 117 may not be disposed at the first substrate pad 111 that is in contact with the measurement bump 136 disposed on the measurement pad 126. Thus, the measurement bump 136 may be electrically insulated from the interconnection 117.

The chip pad 123 and the chip bump 125 may include a metal material. More specifically, the chip bump 125 may include a metal material with lower ionization tendency than the chip pad 123. For example, the chip pad 123 may be aluminum (Al) and the chip bump 125 may be tin (Sn). The higher the ionization tendency of a metal material, the higher the corrosion rate of the metal material. The measurement pad 126 may be applied with a positive voltage or a negative voltage. The measurement pad 126 may be applied with a lower voltage (e.g., 0 volt or above to 3.0 volts or less) or a high voltage (e.g., 3.0 volts or above to 10.0 volts or less). More specifically, the measurement pad 126 on which the measurement bump 136 is disposed may be applied with either one of a positive voltage and a high voltage. According to embodiments of the inventive concepts, the measurement bump 136 may be attached onto the measurement pad 126 to cover a surface of the measurement pad 126 and increase an area of the measurement pad 126. Thus, due to the reasons described in the first to the fifth embodiments, the measurement pad 126 may be prevented from corroding.

The controller 3100, the input/output device 3200, and the memory device 3300 may be connected to each other through the bus 3500. The bus 3500 may be a path along which data are transmitted. For example, the controller 3100 may include at least one of a microprocessor, a digital signal processor, a microcontroller or logic elements capable of performing the same functions as those of the above elements. The controller 3100 and the memory device 3300 may include a semiconductor package according to embodiments of the inventive concepts. The input/output device 3200 may include at least one of a keyboard, a keypad, and a display device. The memory device 3300 may store data and/or commands executed by the controller 3100. The memory device 3300 may be implemented using a flash memory. For example, a flash memory to which the present inventive concepts are applied may be mounted on an information processing system such as a mobile device or a desktop computer. The flash memory may include a solid state drive (SSD). In this case, the electronic system 3000 may stably store high-capacity data in the flash memory. The electronic system 3000 may further include an interface 3400 to transmit data to a communication network or receive data from the communication network. The interface 3400 may be in a wired or wireless form. For example, the interface 3400 may include an antenna, a wired/wireless transceiver or the like. Although not shown in the drawing, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that that the electronic system 3000 may further include an application chipset, a camera image processor (CIS), and an input/output device.

The electronic system 3000 may be implemented as a mobile system, a personal computer, an industrial computer or a multi-functional logic system. For example, the mobile system may be one of a personal digital assistant (PDA), a portable computer, a web tablet, a mobile phone, a wireless phone, a laptop computer, a memory card, a digital music system or an information transmitting/receiving system. If the electronic system 3000 is an apparatus capable of performing wireless communication, the electronic system 3000 may be used in a communication interface protocol such as a third-generation communication system (e.g., CDMA, GSM, NADC, E-TDMA, WCDMA, CDMA2000, etc.).

As illustrated in FIG. 8, the memory card 4000 may include a nonvolatile memory device 4100 and a memory controller 4200. The nonvolatile memory device 4100 and the memory controller 4200 may store data or read stored data. The nonvolatile memory device 4100 may include a semiconductor package according to embodiments of the inventive concepts. The memory controller 4200 may control the nonvolatile memory device 4100 to read stored data or store data in response to read/write requests.

As described above, a semiconductor package according to embodiments of the inventive concepts includes a measurement pad onto which a measurement bump may be attached. Thus, corrosion of the measurement pad may be prevented to improve reliability of the semiconductor package.
